Tired of politically correct spin and media dodging the obvious? This podcast says what everyone's thinking but afraid to say. No sugar-coating, no corporate sponsors dictating content—just honest analysis of current events and corruption the mainstream won't touch. We call out stupidity when we see it, expose corruption hiding in plain sight, and discuss stories the establishment buries. Questionable money trails, double standards, policies that make zero sense—if nobody's talking about it, we will. This isn't left vs. right; it's truth vs. spin. No scripts, no PR team, just real talk.

Ep. 20 - War in Crimea | Everyone Knows
<p><strong>When the enemy's own propagandist draws the map of his side's collapse, the argument is over.</strong></p><p>Ep. 20 — Turning Crimea Into an Island | Everyone Knows</p><p>Everyone Knows is hosted by Brian Bullock of Starborne Studios.</p><p>For three years Crimea was Russia's untouchable rear — the launchpad, the trophy, the safe corner of the war. Tonight it's a peninsula running out of fuel, running out of power, and watched over by a fleet that already packed up and ran. This is the story of how you take an island back without a navy.</p><p><strong>Four parts. All of them matter.</strong></p><p><strong>FIRST: One Night, Sixty Targets</strong><br>In a single night Ukraine hit more than sixty targets across occupied Crimea — fuel depots, radar stations, a power plant, and a railway bridge near Razdolne that no longer exists. The pattern never changes: blind the air defenses, burn the fuel, sink the ferries, freeze the Kerch Bridge. Cheap drones trading for hundred-million-dollar systems, night after night. Zelensky calls it long-range sanctions.</p><p><strong>SECOND: What Russia Did Next</strong><br>Within hours, the occupation cut fuel to everyone but the state, declared an open-ended state of emergency, and rationed power for two million people. Sevastopol bookings fell 43%. The honest read up front: this isn't the Russian economy collapsing tomorrow. But a government in control doesn't run its own gas stations dry. When words and actions point opposite ways, go with the actions.</p><p><strong>THIRD: The Fleet That Ran</strong><br>A country that started the war with essentially no navy has driven the Black Sea Fleet out of Sevastopol — the Moskva, the Novocherkassk, a third of the fleet sunk or wrecked. Now the officers are quietly moving their families off the peninsula. And a Kremlin-aligned war blogger drew the full map of Crimea's fall and told Moscow to brace for it.</p><p><strong>FOURTH: The Rot Inside</strong><br>Junior sergeant Alexander Lunin looked into a camera, named Putin, and described soldiers tortured in pits by their own commanders — 12 million views in a day. Putin's answer was a night raid and a cell. Ask Prigozhin how embarrassing the strongman ends. Recruiting down a third, jails emptied for warm bodies. A winning army doesn't look like this.</p><p>The bridge still stands tonight. But the man drawing the map of how it ends is wearing the other team's colors.</p><p><strong>ABOUT</strong><br>Everyone Knows is a podcast for people who are tired of being lied to.

Ep. 19 - Shadow ban on X | Everyone Knows
<p><strong>You sourced it. You checked it. You broke no rule. The next morning your reach is gone —and nobody ever tells you why.</strong></p><p><strong>The Shadow ban That Never Says Ban | Everyone Knows Ep. 19</strong></p><p><strong>Everyone Knows | Episode 19 | Starborne Studios</strong></p><p>Brian Bullock, ran a sourced news and commentary account for three months. Then one morningthe reach didn't drop — it vanished. No message. No label. No email. No humanto call. This episode is the anatomy of a silencing that never announcesitself: what it really is, why you can't fight what you can't see, and what itmeans when the platform that promised to be the last free-speech stronghold isthe one doing it. And it isn't theory — it's built from the platform's ownpolicy language, its own transparency reporting, and the timeline of an accountit happened to. Brian lived this one in real time and walks you through everypiece.</p><p>Three parts. All of them matter.</p><p><strong>First</strong>, the ban that never says the word ban. X doesn't call it a shadowban — it calls it"visibility filtering," and that's their term, not an angry user's.Brian breaks down how it works: deboosting, search and trend suppression, replyhiding, and the triggers that set it off — follow velocity, engagement spikes,outside links, and an internal trust score you never get to see. The kicker:you don't have to break a single rule. Sometimes going viral too fast is thetrigger. X's own 2024 transparency report confirms it runs at scale, onmillions of accounts, most of them never told.</p><p><strong>Second</strong>, the trap with the door painted on the wall. No label. No notice. No email. Nophone. No human. The appeals section only opens if there's a labeled action —and a silent throttle has none. To explain yourself, you'd have to know whatyou did, and they won't tell you. Premium doesn't buy you out of it. Brian laysout the tests that actually confirm a throttle, the clock you can't see, theone move that genuinely helps, the thing never to do in a panic, and the scam"Fix-your-shadow ban" services to run from.</p><p><strong>Third</strong>, the turn nobody wants to sit with. The place where all of this happens is the one thatsold itself as the last free-speech platform standing — and the man who boughtit said the quiet part out loud, in his own words, back in 2022. Brian givescredit where it's honestly earned, then asks the one question that credit can'tanswer. You'll want to hear where he lands.</p><p>This is the stuff nobody else will say, broken down so it actually makes sense — and itends with something that changed the very week it recorded. If you're tired ofthe spin, you're in the right place.</p><p>ABOUT EVERYONE KNOWS:</p><p> Everyone Knows is an independent podcast hosted by Brian Bullock —author, storyteller, and founder of Starborne Studios.

Ep. 18 - Iran & gas prices at home | Everyone Knows
<p>A month before the war with Iran, gas was under three dollars a gallon. Today it's over three-seventy — and the reason is a strait twenty-two miles wide that most people couldn't find on a map.</p><p>Why the Iran War Is Raising Your Gas Prices | Everyone Knows Ep. 18</p><p>Everyone Knows | Episode 18 | Starborne Studios</p><p>The war with Iran, Operation Epic Fury, started February 28th. On March 4th, Iran shut the Strait of Hormuz, the one narrow channel a fifth of the world's oil has to pass through, and turned the Persian Gulf into a war zone almost overnight. Three months later it's still closed, the strikes are back this week, and the cost has landed on your kitchen table. Brian Bullock walks the whole chain, one piece at a time, no spin and no panic, until you can explain exactly why you're paying more to anybody who asks.</p><p>Three parts. All of them matter.</p><p>FIRST — What happened. How years of pressure over Iran's nuclear program and missiles boiled over into open war on February 28th, why Iran closing one twenty-two-mile strait on March 4th was the move that reached your wallet, and where it stands now: oil up about sixty percent, gas over three-seventy, inflation back above four percent, and fresh U.S. strikes landing this week.</p><p>SECOND — Why it reaches you. The Strait of Hormuz is the only sea exit for the Gulf's oil, and when Iran shut it the chain reaction was brutal: insurers pulled out, tankers stopped sailing, producers cut eleven million barrels a day, and the world began draining its reserves toward twenty-year lows. Brian breaks down why "energy independence" doesn't earn you a discount at the pump, and how the same war shows up in your groceries, your power bill, and nearly everything you own made of plastic.</p><p>THIRD — And the last stretch is the one that hits closest to home. There's a simple piece of math that shows exactly what this is pulling out of your household every single month, a number most people never stop to run. There's one daily signal moving the oil price right now that almost nobody is watching, and once Brian points it out you'll check it every morning. And there are three things that decide whether this gets better or a whole lot worse. You'll want to hear this part.</p><p>This is the news without the theatrics, the hard truth laid out plain and what it actually means for you. If you're tired of the spin, you're in the right place.</p><p>ABOUT EVERYONE KNOWS<br>Everyone Knows is an independent podcast hosted by Brian Bullock — author, storyteller, and founder of Starborne Studios.
